Savvy and MyVi is actually different car...............

the MyVi platform is based from Vitz (the old one), has a boxy profile compared to Vitz is to serve different purpose.......

it is the Vitz actually is in same category as Savvy.........

but thanks to malaysian bloated car price, we have usually compare cars within price rather than its category

anyway, if the Savvy sedan is launch, i dont think Iswara will be replaced with Savvy sedan in taxi market quite soon, it would happen gradually

for me, all old model a.k.a wira, iswara, saga sedan only, should be a taxi rather than develop a new version. change the engine to mix up with NGV. then produce new model. i dont think it is a big matter for proton. unless gov only want crappy V6 and fatty waja to be a taxi in KL.
what i want is, change all old taxi that use old model of merc, bmw or volvo that we always see in kampung one.

government must give an incentives for more petroleum companies to set up more NGV stations too......the present number is not ebough for taxis in Klang Valley, makes a refuel of NGV make take a long time, this will discourage its adoption for consumers

lol, if government plans to use pickups as taxi........i like the idea, haha

talking about savvy, proton could easily fit a Renault Clio diesel engine inside..........that would be a good buy for taxi company

clean and healthy like merc and bmw.

Renault Clio diesel engine......that's ok...

with the pending next year introduction of biodiesel to our market, the Savvy diesel could dominate the compact car easily......hehe

As the savvy is unique as it was the only locally made car with the AMT gearbox, i wondering how many mysia drivers here do appreciate AMT cars, and i have no idea how many AMT savvy were sold so far.

Apart of its cost which is cheaper than a normal auto, AMT and those with semiauto transmission (especially with flappy paddle gearbox) are tend to be jerky. That explains on why in Europe they still prefer manual over auto and semi auto. sweat.gif

I also doubting will the future proton models will have AMT? hmm....
*
u cant expect another AMT model for Proton, as the Savvy got AMT because it is mated with Renault engine......

both cars are good in their own right

the Japanese, tends to produce hatchbacks that is good for utility, everyday use (practical)

while the Europeans, usually produce hatchback that is good in dynamics
(talking about small cars, the French are European experts)

the MyVi (Passo) platform is based from last generation Vitz chassis ( i dont mean it's old, just to state the market postitioning), they use that platform because the next generation Yaris/ Vitz is larger

the MyVi..... for average buyers, when they looked at the exterior , they can see the advantage....( i mean it is obvious)

the Savvy, meanwhile, u need to drive and own it to feel the difference
( especially the 17,000 Nm torsion rigidity, u cant see that externally)

Cool! I thought you're driving a new waja, Jinyee80. Where do you plan to install the bodykits..you've made the perfect choice...check owners forums for more infor about the car.
Before somebody starts to bash and liken it to tiara, the second hand value will automatically drop when the new price is announced.

Wow, that's nice!

Yesterday, i tried my friend's Savvy.......yes, i felt puas hati (satisfied) with it.....felt zippy in this car, dashboard assembly is ok, power window working seamlessly and most importantly, it corners like you are on the rail!

this is definitely the car that i would get if i got my licence or in college....

According to a Proton Edar dealer here, they have sold 30 Savvys for the month of August, of which...50% of these units are Blue colour, compared to the usual average of 10-something Savvy for a month...
